The Last Great American Dynasty - Taylor Swift chords

Key: G Singer/Band: Taylor Swift


Tone: [G]
(Verse 1)
[G] Rebekah rode [Am]up on the afternoon [C]train, it was sunny
[G] Her saltbox house on the [Am]coast took her mind [C]off St. Louis
[G] Bill was the [Am]heir to the Standard [G/B]Oil name and [C]money
And the [G]town said, [Am]"How did a middle-class [C]divorcée do it?"
[G/B] The wedding [Am]was charming, if a little [C]gauche
There's only so far new money [G/B]goes
They picked out a [Am]home and called it [C]"Holiday House"
[G/B] Their parties were [Am]tasteful, if a little [Em]loud
The doctor had [C]told him to settle [G/B]down
It must have been [Am]her fault his heart gave [C/E]out
N.C.
And they said
(Chorus)
[D] There goes the [G/B]last great American [C]dynasty [G]
[D] Who knows, if [G/B]she never showed up, what could've [C][G]been
[D] There goes the [G/B]maddest woman this town has [C]ever seen
She had a [G]marvelous time [Am]ruining [C]everything
(Verse 2)
[G] Rebekah gave [Am]up on the Rhode Island [C]set forever
[G] Flew in all her [Am]Bitch Pack friends from the [C]city
Filled the [G/B]pool with champagne and [Am]swam with the big names
And [Em]blew through the money on the [C]boys and the ballet
[G] And losing on [Am]card game bets with [C]Dalí
N.C.
And they said
(Chorus)
[D] There goes the [G]last great [C]American [G]dynasty
[D] Who knows, if [G]she never showed up, what could've [C]been [G]
[D] There goes the [G]most shameless woman this [C]town has ever seen
She had a [D]marvelous time [G]ruining [C]everything
(Bridge)
[Am] They say she was [Em]seen on occasion
[G] Pacing the rocks, staring [D]out at the midnight sea
[Am] And in a feud with her [Em]neighbor
[G] She stole his dog and [D]dyed it key lime green
[Am] Fifty [Em]years is a long time
[G] Holiday House sat [D]quietly on that beach
[Am] Free of [Em]women with madness, [G]their men and bad habits
[D] And then it was bought by me
[G] [C] [G]
(Chorus)
[D] Who knows, if [G]I never showed up, what could've been [C] [G/B]
[D] There goes the [G]loudest woman this town [C]has ever [G/B]seen
I had a [D]marvelous time [G]ruining everything [C] [G/B]
(Outro)
I had a [D]marvelous t[G]ime[C] r[G/B]uining everything
[D] A marvelous [G][C]time [G/B]ruining everything
[D] A marvelous [G]time [C] [G/B]
I had a [D][G]marvelous time [C]
